Friday 7th August, 2015. The event was the August edition of the 'Life in the Skyy' series, an exclusive reception party organised by Skyy Vodka to honour Nigeria’s dancehall sensation, Patoranking for his recent exploits in the music industry, including winning the highly coveted 2015 MAMA Award. And the turn up was massive indeed.




The venue was the exclusive roof top bar of the Maison Fahrenheit Hotel in Victoria Island, overlooking the beautiful skyline of Kuramo beach to the right and the expansive Eko Hotels to the left.
Although the party was billed to start by 9 p.m., guests started checking in as early 8 p.m. Two hours later, there was no space left for late comers. And the courteous bartenders had a hectic time churning out different cocktails of SKYY Vodka for guests, with DJ Caise keeping the groove at its high tempo with his music mix.
Some of the early arrivals included prominent on-air-personality, Olisa Adibua, ace music producer and judge on MTN Project Fame, TY Mix, Rundown, Runtown, Ketchup and Waje. Others included Wana (Inspiration FM), Fade (Beat FM), music video producer Sesan Ogunro, Vic o, IK Ogbonna, and Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi amongst other guests.
And the man-of-the-moment, Patoranking, arrived in style sandwiched by his team, and was heralded into the venue with shouts of ‘Patoranking-Fire’, ‘Patoranking-Fire’ in wild ecstasy by fans.
Guests were entertained to a few live performances by upcoming artistes, including Mr 2Kay from Port Harcourt and Falz. Thereafter, Patoranking thrilled guests to some of his hit tracks, including the now trending “My woman, my everything” track, to the admiration and cheering of guests.
Shortly before his performance, Patoranking expressed his heart-felt appreciation to all his fans, and especially thanked SKYY Vodka for all the love. He personally autographed 54 bottles of SKYY Vodka which he gave to 54 lucky guests at the ceremony.
Abayomi Ajao, Marketing Manager, Brian Munro Limited (exclusive marketers of SKYY Vodka in Nigeria) expressed satisfaction with the success of the party, adding that the party will be replicated in Abuja and Port Harcourt to enable fans in those locations have the opportunity to party with Patoranking.
It could be recalled that Patoranking, who is SKYY Vodka’s brand ambassador, defeated some of the brightest African top artists, including Stonebwoy(Ghana), Cassper Nyovest (South Africa), Duncan (South Africa) and Anna Joyce (Angola) to pick up the MAMA award in July 2015.
